Idea: Mobile Business Directory/Mobile Websites Input?
I was wondering if anyone had any input on the a platform that I could use for this. I would like to create a local mobile website business directory. Basically I would pick up the domain citymobi.com and build a mobile directory on that site. Rest, Bar, Hair and Beauty, Etc. All Local businesses. The though is that you would go to citymobi.com (where city is my city name) and select what you were looking for. Say restaurants. So you would tap on restaurants and that would bring you to a listing of "icons" for local restaurants with a blurb under each one, "Best Burgers" or something like that. When you see a a rest that you like you can tap on that and be directed to their website facebook page whatever they have/would like.
Than I would like to be able to setup/sell mobile websites at subdomains like businessname.citymobi.com to local businesses to highlight their business. They would get a "mobile badge" or something like that in the business directory. Then they would have their own mobile website to feature a photo gallery, click to call, driving directions via google maps, whatever they wanted on their mobile website.
Does anyone know of any platform that I could build something like this on? I learned wordpress this year and got moderatly comfortable with that. I have see some drag and drop mobile website platforms like gomobi but I am would like to host this myself or more or less not pay a specific mobile website company a monthly fee for hosting at thier domain. I would like to choose my own domain and host it there. That said I would necessarily need to host it myself I would just use hostgator or dreamhsot or something like that anyway. The important part would be to be able to use a domain of my choosing and sub domains for each business that wanted a mobile website of my choosing.
Suggestions?
